Acetylcholine (ACh) is a chemical transmitter serving to propagate an electrical perturbation across the synaptic junctions of animals. ACh and AChE have previously been demonstrated to occur in plants. In this work, we detected AChE at the interface between stele and cortex of the mesocotyl of Zea mays by measuring hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine and by liberation of labeled acetate from [1-(1...

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity has previously been studied by this laboratory and shown to occur at the interface between the stele and cortex of the mesocotyl of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings. In this work we studied the distribution of AChE activity in 5-d-old maize seedlings following a gravity stimulus. After the stimulus, we found an asymmetric distribution of the enzyme in the coleo...
